Hey Calendly Community đź‘‹

I’m so excited to share that coupon codes are officially available in Calendly!

With coupon codes, you can now create and manage flexible discount codes for your Stripe-powered paid events, directly from Calendly. Coupon codes are unique to each event type, and fully customizable. 

 

✨ How to create your first code:

  1. Select the event type where you want to offer a discount.
  2. In the editor, click More options, then scroll to Payment.
    Make sure you're connected to Stripe and have a price set.
    (Need help? Here’s how to connect Stripe and set your price)
  3. Click Create coupon code to open the setup window.
     

 

 

There, you’ll:

  • Add a unique coupon code (what your clients enter at booking)
  • Include a coupon name (what appears on receipts and invoices)
  • Choose between a percentage or flat-rate discount
  • (Optional) Limit the code to first-time bookings, set usage limits, and add an expiration date

 

 

Once your code is created and saved, your customers can easily enter the code at checkout, see the adjusted price, pay and schedule in one smooth step.

 

 

🚀 Why use coupon codes?

By offering coupon codes for your paid events with Calendly, you make it easier to grow your business and build relationships with your clients:

  • 🎯 Attract new customers with first-time booking offers

FAQ

 

Q. Can I use this with the PayPal Integration? 
A. This is only available with the Stripe Integration at this time.

Q.  Can I make a paid event free with a coupon code?
A. Yes, you can create a coupon code that give invitees a 100% discount, making a meeting free. If the coupon covers the full price, your invitee will skip the Stripe checkout process and no transaction will appear in Stripe.

 

Q. Can coupon codes be used for multiple event types?
A. No, coupon codes are specific to each event type. You can’t currently use the same code on more than one ET.

Hello 🤗,

Thank you for this great feature that will surely help a lot with the marketing process.

Do you know if it will be integrated for paypal payments as well ?

If it is planned, do you know an estimate of how long long it will take to be available ?

 

Thanks in advance for you reply.

Regards,

When will this feature be available? 

Hi ​@Mélanie18300, this is not planned right now but it is on our radar and I will pass your interest over to our product team for this.

​@Charlotte03851, this is gradually rolling out now. We anticipate that everyone should have this feature available by end of next week, but continue to check your account for availability. 

Thanks for the update, Hilary! Appreciate the clarity on what’s coming and the timeline for rollout. 🙌

Not seeing it yet.  

Still excited though. 🥳

For limiting code use is that per person or for the use of the code for all users? 

can we create codes dynamically using the API? Or is it only a single code per event?

​@Daring Futures You should have access tomorrow at the latest. Thanks for your patience as we get this rolled out!

​@thereppedlab good questions. The “Limit the number of times the code can be used” option is across all your users, so if you limit a code to 5 times, and share with 5 people, they could each book once or one person could in theory book all 5. If you want to make sure different users are redeeming, you can check the “Eligible for first-time order only” option to make sure unique people are using this code. 

There is not currently a way to create codes dynamically, but I passed that question along to our team. You can however create more than one code per event type, and share those with different customers as needed.

Hi ​@hilaryyeg  This doesn't actually show (as far I can see) WHERE the client/customer needs to input the coupon - it just shows the coupon discount being applied to the price. Can you share a picture of the place where they input/apply the code? Thank you

Thanks ​@hilaryyeg - I can see it now!

🥳

​@Natalie62755 I see what you’re saying now. Here’s a view of the input field:

Thank you, Hilary! This is exactly what I was looking for. Can I ask - if I set up a coupon directly in Stripe (not in Calendly), will that still work here? I imagine it would… thank you

At this time, coupon codes need to be created directly in Calendly, we are not pulling in codes that are created in Stripe. I have forwarded this inquiry to our product team for visibility.

Hi,

I noticed that the event payload doesn’t include any information about whether a user applied a coupon code.
Is there any plan to include this detail in the payload in the future?

Thanks in advance!

Best,
Felipe C.

Hi Felipe @Olira, we need some additional clarification of what you’re asking to answer. Feel free to email me hilary.yeganegi@calendly.com with more info.

Hi! So happy this feature is finally available; it will play a huge role in getting referrals for my local photo studio! I’d like to use the same promo code (ELLA10) across all event types (influencer promoting our studio), but when I use it on a new event type, it says it’s already been taken. Is there a workaround to apply the same code for all event types? I don’t mind doing it manually but right now it seems like this isn’t possible but the product update says otherwise. Thanks! 

 

Hi ​@butterboston thank you for the comment, we’re so excited to hear that this will be helpful for you. At this time, coupon codes are unique to each event type, so you can’t use the same code across all your events. However this is something we’ve heard a few times since launch and I’ve already shared your comment with our product team about how this would be helpful for you. I’ll be sure to update this thread with any changes.

 Hello ;)

I’m in the same case as ​@butterboston where I need a unique coupon code for all my offers. 

In this Q&A, I understood  that we could use the same code by re-creating it manually. That’s why I created an account on Stripe. I hope you’ll come up with an update on it soon. Regards,

​@Mélanie18300 thank you for pointing that out, that was an error on my part which I have corrected. 

As mentioned in my previous comment, I’m sharing these requests for with our product team actively so hopefully we’ll have an update on that in the near future.

Thanks

We absolutely need this too please!!!!

Why would coupon codes not be universal across different events? This makes it extremely difficult to give a customer a useful code for an array of services. 

 

For us, it makes this basic feature useless.
